This is a family favorite anytime, but especially at the holidays. Sometimes I'll freeze the dough and then bake the cookies when I have time.

This is my family's favorite cookie at Christmas. It's always the first thing to get eaten and the first thing to disappear.These are a bit of work, but well worth it. I usually have to use around 4 1/2 C. of flour in the dough--otherwise, while baking they tend to spread into an oblong shape. If you cook the date filling too much it will be difficult to spread--add a little water back to the mixture to make it more spreadable. I have frozen the dough rolls up to a month before baking (wrapped in waxed paper, then put in a 9"x13" cake pan with lid.) Also, these cookies freeze well. I usually make them in November for Christmas. I would say these could easily be frozen up to 3 months.
